feminine · Finnish origin
Marjaana is a Finnish given name, a extended elaborated form of Marja, which is itself the Finnish adaptation of Maria. Maria derives from the Latin and Greek form of the Hebrew name Miryam, whose exact meaning remains debated but is often associated with meanings such as "beloved" or "rebellious." The name has been widely used in Finland as a distinctly local variant of the internationally widespread Mary tradition, alongside related forms such as Marja, Marjatta, and Marianna.
